Manchester United coach Phil Neville was able to see the funny side of the Twitter backlash to his commentary debut on Saturday.
Neville's monotone commentary on England's opening World Cup game saw him come in for stick on Twitter and the BBC received over 400 complaints.
Even a local police force took to Twitter to joke he had helped calm fans from causing trouble in the streets.
Neville said: "The big thing I learned is that co-commentary is harder than I thought!
"I welcome all the feedback. Social media is just like playing football. You turn on your phone after 90 minutes and then you get some lovely messages.
"I will get better. It was my first live gig, I am just glad I helped everyone sleep back home.
"I thought I put in some good insight but the feedback is that I need to show a bit more excitement."
